Part 1

Create a page using a template

Use the 'Hands-on building' template
In the Details tab: use your building's name as your page Title; and add the image of your building as the Listing image
In Region 2: add some content to the WYSIWYG widget - you can copy (Ctrl + C) and paste (Ctrl + V) some text (if do this, remember to use the 'Remove Format' option in the toolbar)
Once you're ready to publish your page, click 'Publish now'

Part 2

Add some taxonomy terms to your page

In the Details tab, go to the Taxonomies section
Select your building's main building material from the 'Primary building material' dropdown list
Select the number of floors your building has from the 'Number of Floors' dropdown list
Once you've entered your taxonomy terms, click 'Publish now'

Part 3

Check that your page has been added to the listing

Once your page is published, it'll be added to a listing of 'Hands-on Buildings'

See the Hands-on Buildings

Play with the site theme

Use the Site Theme options in Site Settings

Upload an image to the header top bar or footer

Remember the image will be tiled across the top bar/footer area and text will be placed over the top of it. It'll be good to use a pale image which will repeat well

Create a page from a template... or build it from scratch

Create some new content in the 'Add new content' screen (Manage Content section) and select one of the templates, or build from scratch using one of the content types
